At least, right now I feel I'm going through precisely that vortex. Everything I believed in, is no longer valid, and everything I was hoping for is now beyond my grasp. What got me to this point? Creative destruction. The hope and belief that out of this dark hole will emerge new opportunities, dreams and hopes. Essentially the opportunity for a new life comes out from the missed opportunities of my old self.

Right now I'm in the beginning of my journey down my rabbit hole. But as time goes by I hope to start turning dreams into reality again. That's the only way to live. Expecting that the future WILL get better, no matter how bad it might look today.
